AerogenFlame Treatment SpecialistsFlame Treatment - Principal criteriaOptimization of parameters is essentialThe key benefit of surface treatment is enhanced adhesion and bonding qualities in a substrate,Benefits:Increased productivityReduced reject rateEconomical productionMain Advantage- Improved product quality- Durable adhesion- Versatile treatment- Reliable- Repeatable- Low Cost- Low Maintenance- No PrimersThe Aerogen control system manages flame treatment in a way that is repeatable and reliable for industrialapplication the following parameters must be controlled.- Burner output- Air/Gas ratio (Excess oxygen)- Dwell time- Flame distance to the surface / Mechanical handling- The substrateNo TreatmentLiquid is repelled from the surfaceFlame TreatmentLiquid is attracted to the surfaceThe Aerogen Company Limited - Unit 3 Alton Business Centre, Omega Park, Alton, Hampshire, England, GU34 2YUTel 44 (0) 1420 83744 Fax 44 (0) 1420 80032 Email info@aerogen.co.uk Web www.aerogen.co.ukCopyright The Aerogen Company Limited 2008
AerogenFlame Treatment SpecialistsPlasticsFlame treatment of plastics encompasses the infinite range of extruded or molded products. Different applications arecovered within this market sector including: -bottles, containers, moldings, components, extruded pipes and cable coversetc. Flame treatment can be utilized to promote the adhesion of labels or print enhancing product quality. This is mostbeneficial for printing and labeling insuring that there is no damage to such applications from transit or handling of theproduct insuring a products visual integrity and "sale ability" is intact when reaching the supermarket shelf.Benefits:Improved print and label durabilityReduced reject rateEnhanced product qualityMain Applications- Bonding printing- Labeling of containers- Printing of:- Caps- Closures- Bottles- Packaging- Containers- CableMain Advantage- Versatile treatment- Reliable- Repeatable- Low Cost- Low Maintenance- No PrimersThe Aerogen Company Limited - Unit 3 Alton Business Centre, Omega Park, Alton, Hampshire, England, GU34 2YUTel 44 (0) 1420 83744 Fax 44 (0) 1420 80032 Email info@aerogen.co.uk Web www.aerogen.co.ukCopyright The Aerogen Company Limited 2008
AerogenFlame Treatment SpecialistsAutomotiveWith modern generation plastic components being increasingly used within car manufacture there is a substantialdemand for specialty coatings to improve visual, versatile and durable qualities. However due to the poor adhesioncharacteristics of most plastics flame treatment can be implemented to insure adequate adhesion takes place.Benefits:Increase product qualityReduce reject ratesEliminate adhesion failuresAvoid costly solvent based primersDramatically reduce factoryemissionsMain Applications- Bumpers- Instrument panels- Spoilers- Instrument panels- Wheel Trims- Mirror coversMain Advantages- Increase of Bonding- Fully automatic- Repeatable results- Low running costs, maintenance & Utility- No adhesion promoting primers requiredFlame treatment increases adhesion for painting, bonding, slushing and foaming and is commonly andincreasingly used within vehicle manufacture. Aerogen technology is utilized on components used inalmost every type of automotive vehicle in the market place today.The Aerogen Company Limited - Unit 3 Alton Business Centre, Omega Park, Alton, Hampshire, England, GU34 2YUTel 44 (0) 1420 83744 Fax 44 (0) 1420 80032 Email info@aerogen.co.uk Web www.aerogen.co.ukCopyright The Aerogen Company Limited 2008
AerogenFlame Treatment SpecialistsConverting/PrintingThe laminated carton is proving popular packaging technology, due to its flexibility as a packaging solution and alsoas an environmentally friendly design with materials coming from renewable resources. Aerogen’s flame treatingtechnology allows for the conditioning of the paper / carton board preparing its adhesion qualities prior to lamination.Such enhanced adhesion contributes to a product that which isused for the storage of liquids such as milk and fruit juicesBenefits:Enhanced Carton integrityPrevents de laminationEliminates pin holes in laminate thuspreventing cross contaminationEnhanced adhesionMain Applications- Paper & Carton Board- Extrusion coating PE or NylonMain Advantages- Increased bonding of laminate to board- 100% fiber tear result- De - Wicking- No Ozone emissions or hazardous by products- RepeatabilityReliabilityThe Aerogen Company Limited - Unit 3 Alton Business Centre, Omega Park, Alton, Hampshire, England, GU34 2YUTel 44 (0) 1420 83744 Fax 44 (0) 1420 80032 Email info@aerogen.co.uk Web www.aerogen.co.ukCopyright The Aerogen Company Limited 2008
AerogenFlame Treatment SpecialistsFilmFilms such as BOPP can benefit from flame treatment where the final coating requirements demand high adhesionqualities in the substrate that other methods of surface treatment cannot offer. Such examples are highperformance adhesive tapes requiring a low adhesive coating application on the “non sticky” side of the film. Theflame enhances the adhesion of the film thus allowing for the low adhesion coating to be applied that wouldotherwise not be compatible.Benefits:High adhesion properties for printing and coatingMain Applications- BOPP- OPPMain Advantage- Offers high treatment levels- No Backside Treatment- No Decay of Treatment- No Pin holing- No Hazardous emissionsOur Technology- Patented burners- Flame Plasma- Automatic flame controlsFilm for printing such as Gift wrapping, Confectionary, Pasta, Snack food, Collations packs and hardware &stationary. Other applications include adhesive tape and metalized film.605040SurfaceEnergyDynes / cm30201000 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20The Aerogen Company Limited - Unit 3 Alton Business Centre, Omega Park, Alton, Hampshire, England, GU34 2YUTel 44 (0) 1420 83744 Fax 44 (0) 1420 80032 Email info@aerogen.co.uk Web www.aerogen.co.ukCopyright The Aerogen Company Limited 2008
AerogenFlame Treatment SpecialistsFlame PolishingFlame polishing removes burs and flash from injection molded components. The flame rounds off edges withoutdamaging the product. Examples include Lingerie coat hangers to prevent snagging.Automotive moldings can also benefit, as removal of burs and flash with the Aerogen flame can prevent paintaccumulation to ensure smooth surface finishes.Benefits:Removal of unwanted burs & flashSmoothing of edgesGloss surface finishMain Applications- Injection Molded componentsMain Advantages- Smooth surface finishes- High quality- Repeatable results- Reliability- Prevents paint accumulation on mold seamsThe Aerogen Company Limited - Unit 3 Alton Business Centre, Omega Park, Alton, Hampshire, England, GU34 2YUTel 44 (0) 1420 83744 Fax 44 (0) 1420 80032 Email info@aerogen.co.uk Web www.aerogen.co.ukCopyright The Aerogen Company Limited 2008
AerogenFlame Treatment SpecialistsAnti FleckingAnti Flecking of sheet metal such as tin plate is implemented to prepare the surface prior to further coating. Theprocess is implemented in many coating lines and the flame removes any forming oil or grease present on the surface ofthe substrate preparing the surface in a way that promotes adhesion and thus coating durability.The Anti flecking burner system is usually situated on the coating line prior the size coating being applied, this wellproven technology ensures that spot marks are reduced to a minimum and aid consistent coating resulting in high qualityvisual results.Benefits:Removal of forming oil & GreasePre warming of surfaceMain Applications- Tin, aluminum, steel sheetMain Advantages- Increased coating durability- Improved appearance of print- No hazardous emissions- Repeatability- ReliabilityAnti Flecking flame profile:The Aerogen Company Limited - Unit 3 Alton Business Centre, Omega Park, Alton, Hampshire, England, GU34 2YUTel 44 (0) 1420 83744 Fax 44 (0) 1420 80032 Email info@aerogen.co.uk Web www.aerogen.co.ukCopyright The Aerogen Company Limited 2008
